Agatha Rex: Competition Version

adapted by Lindsay Price from Antigone by Sophocles

NEW Competition Version!

Agatha’s two brothers have broken a school rule on a dare. One of them is expelled and the other is not. When Agatha demands equal treatment for her brothers, she finds that standing up for what’s right comes with consequences.

Set in a modern-day high school, the play translates the original Greek chorus into a fantastic ensemble opportunity.
